Day 15 - "Let's pop the sausage in"

Two weeks under our belt and we're both going down a couple of notches. I had another weight-in this morning and I've now lost 11Ibs since we started.

Before breakfast we took Bails for a walk to Holyrood park. For breakfast we finished off the 2nd half of the beans from yesterday with a slice of toast.

Toast and beans + Cuppa - 9p


After breakfast I did a quick stock check on what we still had left since we were at the half way point. I then made another batch of soup and pasta sauce. 



I also broke up the spare spaghetti we had left after I measure how much we needed for later in the week.



Tomato, lentil and spaghetti soup - 18p



Bailey eyeing up the soup!!

We were heading out to see friends and their new baby so we finished off the tinned peaches from the other day and made ourselves a flask of tea to take to theirs.

Peaches - 5p




Cuppa - 1p

After our "stock take" this morning we worked out we had some spare sausages so we decided to use one in the pasta for a bit of protein.



Pasta, tomato sauce and sausage - 45p

We're just about to head out for a quick walk with Bailey but we have a wee treat when we get back. A cuppa and an 1/8 of the apple pie from last Sunday. A bargain at 25p for the whole thing so this little slice only cost us 3.1p each.

We're both glad to be past the 1/2 way point as we're getting bored with the repetitiveness of what we have available to eat and drink although we're still grateful that we have food to eat as so many people in the UK and across the world may not have eaten a tall today.

Cuppa + apple pie slice - 5p

Total for the day 83p each.
